In case you missed it, one of the camper and recreational vehicle space’s annual exhibitions, the Düsseldorf Caravan Salon, took place recently, according to reporting at GearPatrol.com.
Naturally, all the world’s greatest outfitters and coachbuilders attended to show off their latest creations.
German-based Dethleffs, a THOR Industries Inc. European business unit, is one. Amid all the buzz, the camper and trailer builder revealed its latest concept – built on a Volkswagen Crafter 4×4 van chassis – which may just set a new standard for eco-friendly glamping.
Dethleffs’ newest camper is called the C.Core and it builds upon the company’s latest RV platform. But unlike many other campers out there, Dethleffs potentially sets a new bar on tech-forward and advanced systems.
It’s all found in the latest additions to the C.Core, which bring some of the most advanced gadgets to support basic functions.
On the outside, the C.Core looks like your typical, contemporary-styled European camper. It utilizes Volkswagen’s latest Crafter van as its backbone. From there, it gets all fancy and state-of-the-art.
The exterior shell is made of lightweight aluminum to help keep weight down, improving fuel efficiency and handling.
Stepping inside the C.Core looks like the equivalent to stepping into a smartly designed, modern and hip tiny home. Every panel and seating arrangement appears neatly upholstered in eco-conscious materials, themed in a rather welcoming and contemporary color palette.
Key features include:
Sustainable design: Uses recycled materials, closed-loop recycling principles and biomimicry to reduce environmental impact.
Energy & Heating: Features expandable solar panels and a multi-fuel Truma heater compatible with hydrotreated vegetable oil.
Digital Tech: Replaces the traditional television with an ultrakurzdistanz-beamer (ultra-short-throw projector) and roll-down screen above the entry door, alongside wireless charging and USB-C ports.
